안티고네에 나타난 아곤의 의미

우승정 대한영어영문학회 2017 영어영문학연구 Vol.43 No.3

This article is an attempt to analyze agons and their effects in Antigone. Agon originally refers to the actual act of competition or game. But it is also used to refer to dialogue in the tragedies and debates within court settings. This work has two thematic agons both in the dialogues and the debates in the court: the agon of sovereignty and the agon of law and justice. Nietzsche explains that agon in the ancient Greek culture played a key role in change from destructive struggling into creative competition. This work shows such positive aspects of vehement competition: Creon vs Haemon and Creon vs Antigone. Their agons are based on the steadfast political and ethical philosophy, and logically develop into the debate on whether the law of polis is superior or the unwritten law of gods. This conflict makes the audience consider the ethical and political priority in the changing period in ancient Greece. The Antigone by Sophocles is arguably a good source to study this trend, and the guide of its modern application.

This study examines that Antigone by Sophocles and Antigone of 2019 by Sophie Deraspe are disaster humanities to describe the reality of national laws causing disaster to individuals. Antigones in the drama and movie experience disaster because of the law in their societies. The laws don’t protect them but give suppression and marginalization. The laws of Athens did not define women as independent subjects. Antigone by Deraspe claims that the law that sentenced Antigone’s sacrifice guilty is unfair. Two works not only describe the resistance against the unjust oppression imposed by the laws but raise public awareness of the disaster inflicted on the week. The movie emphasizes on the solidarity, which means the stop against the violence of the others or the week, and hope for the society coexisting with them.

This study examines why human identity needs to be reconsidered and what needs to establish a relationship with other forms of life at the Post-human ages, by focusing on A Number by Caryl Churhill. A Number shows clones who have greater empathy and thinking ability than humans have. They also have an explicit self-esteem, but are confused about their identity. So important are the questions like “who is a real human?” and “whose identity belongs to them?” to understand humans and them. Churchill answers the questions by presenting them as Salter’s ‘being father’ and ‘doing father’. She also shows that ‘being a father’, which is Salter’s desire, is only to be a Narcissistic fantasy which our scientific technology society dreams by copying the cells. Salter, as an origin of his biological son and his clones, asks for the respect of his authority but it gradually turns out that he is not worth it. Therefore, it emphasizes the new recognition of human subjectivity, focusing on the interconnection between the others and human beings. This study is about the beginning of post-humans’ thinking that breaks down the boundaries between human and other forms of life. It is also Churchill’s hope of human conditions in the future and her answer to the problem of “natural” and “cultivation” emerging from the technology of human cloning.

안티고네 되살리기: 안티고네 프로젝트와 민주주의

This study focuses on modern Antigones’ ordeals and sufferings caused by the irrationality and partiality of laws in Antigone Project. It also examines their continuing efforts and struggles against the suppression and unjustice in modern democratic societies. Five plays included in the work were written by 5 female playwrights. In the work, Antigone symbolizes a conscientious fighter as well as a person excluded from public areas by power and laws. Each playwright commonly thinks that the modern Antigones’ efforts toward peace or justice are in crisis more severely in the process of ‘the war against terrorism’ due to the leaders’ hysteric reaction and the suppression of governmental authorities in democratic countries since the 9/11 terror. They also think that reviving Antigone is needed because she acts against the unjust reality, and is willing to sacrifice herself for defending human rights and dignities. This is why the work uses the motif of revival. When Antigone rises again, she does not adjust herself to her fate, but continues struggles to change the society, as the hope and potential for a new history are achievable. Moreover, she invites people to take part in her efforts to stop injustice and suppression under modern democratic countries.

This study aims to examine Antigone’ role of raising a question to the state-oriented ideology in Ancient Greek, and analyze what it signifies to women in charge of the private sphere, Oikos. It also explains that Antigone the protagonist’s role as the heroine overwhelming male characters is intended to educate the audience the dynamics: a new public order cannot be realized without respecting the private world when the private world conflicts with the public world. Sophocles’ Antigone presents the problem as a family conflict through the confrontation between Antigone, who wants to protect the private sphere, and Creon, who prioritizes the protection of the state. So Athenian audiences can realistically consider the cause demanded by the state. In it, Antigone serves as a person who raises a question to the ideological coercion of the public world. Antigone shows that a woman’s voice limited to the private sphere awakens the dignity of women and the importance of the realm in relation to national power, even though the work adopts the typical image of women in ancient literature. In the end, this can be regarded as being in line with feminism’s politics of participation in the reality in that the woman educated the public on how to modify and supplement the male-centered political world.

This study examines the adaptation technique, the breaking linear timeline, and its effects in the movie Little Women(2019) by Greta Gerwig. She adapted the original novel of Louisa May Alcott, connecting the messages of love, art, and money with the modern viewpoint of them. For this, Gerwig dissects the time of the original novel, jumping back and forth in the story. Shifting timeline back and forth is a key factor of feminist theatrical apparatuses, which is used for unveiling how to make the now from the past. Ambitious and talented women from the past have made their ways regardless of the patriarchal social oppression on their economical independence and marriage. Gerwig begins the movie with four sisters’ adulthood, making it flash back to their childhood unlike the novel. Her creative and smart adaptation gives Little Women a modern feminist interpretation; the modern appreciation of female characters, social criticism on the inequality of women’ potentials, the ending that Alcott wanted―Jo who remains as a spinster. The happy ending without marriage and the women’ pursuit of their own dreams reflect the fourth wave of the feminist movement, which pursues egalitarian relationship and co-existence with men by denying the conventional ideas of sexuality, marriage, and family.

This study examines Timberlake Wertenbaker’s translation of history in New Anatomies, which revolved around the historical figure of Isabelle Everhardt, who traveled across Europe and North Africa in the early 20th century. Timberlake Wertenbaker focuses on how to change Isabelle’s materials into a new historical drama in order to show the editorial intention to historical reports, which leads to explore the link of colonization and gender in the work. Wertenbaker chooses the events and people from Everhardt’s original materials, and dramatizes them to reread her history from the perspective of post-colonialism. Wertenbaker runs in parallel gender binarism with French colonial Africa, because the main issue of the drama is the exploration of Isabelle’s identity. Though she was born as a white European woman, she identifies herself with an Arab man named Si Mahmoud. Her changed gender symbolizes the refusal against the forced identity of colonized Africa as well as making her own decision of gender identity. To show this feature, Wertenbaker uses the common dramaturgy in a drama history: cross-dressing. This staging strategy makes gender binarism disrupt and disband. This dramatic strategy also demonstrates not only the changeable fluidity of a person’s identity but the fluidity of the translation of history.

Woo, Seungjeung. “The Meaning of Metamorphoses through Mythic Reshape by Mary Zimmerman.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 43.1 (2017): 125-146. This paper examines how Mary Zimmerman appropriates and changes a canonical text, Ovid’s Metamorphoses into her own modern and feminist representation. In the theatrical aspect, she adapts the classical text and reshapes some stories in it using a feminist theatrical way, that is, giving the voice to women. She also modernizes the old stories by assigning the roles of narrators to women. This leads the audiences to contemplate upon the truth in human lives and the fixed stereotypes like myths in the society. It thus helps to understand them from different perspectives. Considering her theme, she is well known to deal with the modern case studies of abnormal personalities: those of neurosis, self-love, compulsive greed, incest, etc. She also presents the images and verbal message on the brilliant ideas about loss and change after painful experiences of love. In this right, Zimmerman, one of the cultural creative playwrights in the 1980-90s, found the modern myth which visualizes the contemporary society and embodies feminist ideas in the representation of concern for others and love in it.
